I wish I could say that I took this while diving, but unfortunately, I have to admit that took it at the Manila Ocean Park (http://www.manilaoceanpark.com/). I posted a few other images from this set over here (http://lightchasersphotography.com/blog/under-the-sea/).

I wish the shark's jaws were open, but no matter how I tried to direct them, they didn't really pay me any attention.

Andrew: It might be small enough to be a toy, but I'm sure it still packs a mean bite.

Christopher: I wanted to slap it to get its attention, but sadly, there was a thick piece of glass in the way. :D

.. you could try a pet shop in San Francisco Del Monte which sells saltwater creatures -- a shark is on display, you might want to try it there. Usually, when its feeding time these sharks stretch out their gums / lips to reveal their razor sharp teeth. Stretching a bit more opens their mouth ( this I'm not sure ) ... but visit the shop, there's also a lot of beautiful saltwater fishes, which is usually more colorful than the freshwater ones ...

Ramelo: I'll try to remember that if I'm in the area. Thanks for the tip.

To everybody else: I'm just wondering... I did post this in the critique section, right? :D
